Hi guys,
First-time poster, my girlfriend is contracted to a government department. She suffers from anxiety and occasional depression and has to take anti-dep meds daily.
These meds make her real tired at times and she occasionally sleeps through alarms and misses morning meetings.
I've said she should explain her medical situation to her bosses so they can understand her situation and not think she's just lazy or not bothered.
But because she's a contractor she's nervous that they'd just sack her and get someone else in.
Has anyone had any experience with this? Would love to get some thoughts on common practice and how well or otherwise businesses treat contractors with mental illness like this...
Thanks!
